Y/n's POV:
"But y/n, best friends aren't supposed to betray each other either, that's not what our friendship is and you know that." Shawn grips his hair with both hands, his lip quivering the slightest making my heart ache.
"If I'm being honest shawn, I don't know what this friendship is about, why does the fact that I have a boyfriend bother you so much?" My cheeks become flushed with anger.
He never acts like this I'm not sure what he's thinking and why he'd go out of his way to hurt me like this.
"A-and I'm not betraying you I don't understand and if you don't explain I never will!" A couple tears slip down my cheek from being so angry, I even begin to sweat and the more I look at him the worse it gets.
I hear my mom bustling in the kitchen downstairs, since my bedroom door is open I know she can hear everything we're saying because we're most definetly not being quiet about our fight.
He sighs, looking as if he's giving up on everything, giving up on me.
"I-i guess I don't know what I'm talking about, and I can assure you that I can't explain y/n, you'll never think of me the same and I don't want to lose the person that means most." He hides his face with his hands breathing out loudly at this tricky situation we got ourselves into.
"Whatever shawn," i say with a prominant attuitude, "i used to think we could be honest with each other but clearly you don't think so." I can feel my heart fracture at the pain of slowly and surely losing my best friend, my other half.
"Darling, I want too," he looks so pained and as if he's fighting an intense battle with himself, the side I'm not routing for, clearly winning, "i want to tell you every thought that I've been keeping from you, to sit with you on your bed and spill every last drop of words from my heart b-but I can't." His eyes become glossy, but before a tear could form he wipes it away trying to keep his strong composure.
Just then, my boyfriend of 2 months texts me, causing me to be distracted from our argument...
Matt♡: babe, date tomorrow?
I sigh, not from happiness at the notification, but of complete anger and disapointment in shawn.
"If-if I tell you-," he stutters, his eyes frantically roaming around, making up a last minute decision.
"Save it shawn," i spit at him, my hands shaking from anger, "and just go away."
I never knew what It was like to witness the first second someone's heart was broken, but shawn, showed me loud and clear. I have never seen the strongest person I know, look so week and vulnerable right in front of me.
"Baby please," he begs, his eyes instantly clouding with regret as shock overcomes both of our faces.
"Baby?" I asked, never so angry at him in my life, "you think you can call me baby? God shawn leave and don't come back. You have caused enough problems with me and Matt and this cannot be another one."
I walk towards him shoving him back, out my door and down the hall, stopping at the top of the stairs.
He's actually crying now, his lip quivering so hard, on the verge of sobbing.
"No, no, no y/n you cant, you're all I have please," His eyes and nose are burning red, he's just so hurt.
He's my best friend, I love him with every bone in my body, with as much passion as you could imagine, and I can't believe I'm kicking him out of my house. We're seniors and last time I did this we were both in 8th grade.
"Call me when you decide to be my real best friend, the one that cares," and with that I turn the other way, running to my room, and slamming the door, shaking the entire house. I hear him slowly walk down the stairs, soft sniffles coming from his nose.
"Shawn," my mother says sadly, "I'll see you around alright?"
With no answer, no goodbye like he usually does, I hear a door close loudly, and shortly after his car engine Rev up but not before I receive a text...
Muffin man: I'll always be your real best friend, and I hope you'll see that.
I cry throwing my phone across the room, already missing him and wishing he was here in my arms right now.
I can't just lose someone like this
